Should
the world continue, historians will undoubtedly record how the messianic
fervor surrounding the election of the 44th president of the United States
reflected not only widespread disapproval for Bush administration policies,
but how, in the aftermath of September 11, 2001 the American psyche was
primed to accept expansive alterations in political and financial policy
with an overarching scheme for salvation from chaos. Among these historians,
a few will undoubtedly also argue that, as National German Socialists
did in the years following World War I, Barack Hussein Obama appealed
to the increasingly disenfranchised
voters among American society by playing on their understandable fears
in order to posture himself as the essential agent of change. What most
of these historians are not likely to record, however, is the involvement
before and after the U.S. presidential election by unseen shapers of the
New World Order. If they did, the vast numbers of people would not believe
it anyway, the idea that behind the global chaos that gave rise to Obama’s
popularity was a secret network, a transnational hand directing the course
of civilization. Yet no account of history including recent times is complete
or even sincere without at least acknowledging the behind-the-scenes masters
who manipulate international policy, banking and finance, securities and
exchange, trade, commodities, and energy resources. Numerous works including
scholarly ones have connected the dots between this ruling superclass
and the integration of policy handed down to governing bodies of nation-states
and supra-national organizations.

The
Economist Newspaper in April 2008 pointed to research by academic
David Rothkopf, whose book, Superclass: The Global Power Elite and
the World They Are Making documented how only a few thousand people
worldwide actually dictate the majority of policies operating at a global
scale. The Economist described this comparatively small number of elites
as being "groomed" in "world-spanning institutions…
[who] meet at global events such as the World Economic Forum at Davos
and the Trilateral Commission or… the Bilderberg meetings or the
Bohemian Grove seminars that take place every July in California."
[1]Long time radio host
and author of Brotherhood of Darkness, Stanley Monteith says such persons
are part of an "Occult Hierarchy" that rules the world and directs
the course of human events. "The movement is led by powerful men
who reject Christianity, embrace the ‘dark side,’ and are
dedicated to the formation of a world government and a world religion,"
he writes. "They control the government, the media… many corporations,
and both [US] political parties." [2]Interestingly, Pope
Benedict XVI may have referred to the same group when in 2008 he warned
United Nations diplomats that multilateral consensus needed to solve global
difficulties was "in crises" because answers to the problems
were being "subordinated to the decisions of the few." His predecessor,
Pope John Paul II may have acknowledged the same, believing a One World
Government beneath the guidance of a ruling superclass was inevitable.
Before his death, it was prominent American political scientist Samuel
P. Huntington who brought the uber-echelon behind the push for global
government up from "conspiracy theory" to academic acceptability
when he established that they "have little need for national loyalty,
view national boundaries as obstacles that thankfully are vanishing, and
see national governments as residues from the past whose only useful function
is to facilitate the elite’s global operations." [3]In other words, according
to experts, international affairs, foreign and domestic politics and taxpayer
funded investment economics are being largely decided by a privileged
cadre of families who are dedicated to a New World Order and One World
Government.

I have
to admit when writing this series it was difficult to resist the temptation
to compile at length the names, dates and organizations that form the
goals of the ruling elite. Having accumulated thousands of pages of research
material concerning the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, Bohemians, Masons,
the Bilderbergers and other Illuminatus subgroups, my original intention
included several chapters on the memberships past and present of the largely
unknown powers working behind public affairs. In the end I determined
that enough of this type material is already available to the public and
that this work would be better served in raising awareness beyond the
machinations of financiers and occult ideologues who direct global institutions,
by showing that behind their matrix of illusion—which most citizens
perceive as reality—is an arena of evil supernaturalism under which
these human ‘conduits’ are willingly organized. In more than
thirty important biblical texts, the Greek New Testament employs the term
kosmos, which describes an invisible order or "government behind
government." It is here that human ego, separated from God, becomes
hostile to the service of mankind while viewing people as commodities
to be manipulated in the service of fiendish ambition. To some, the origins
of this phenomenon began in the distant past when a "fire in the
minds" of angels caused Lucifer to exalt himself above the good of
God’s Creation. The once glorified spirit was driven mad by an unequivocal
thirst to rule, conquer, and dominate. His fall spawned similar lust between
his followers, which continues today among human agents of dark power
who guard a privileged "cause and effect" relationship between
diabolical forces and the opportunity for lordship over societies.

The
objectives of the secret orders and the very real forces they serve is
seldom perceived by citizens of democratic societies who choose to believe
national officials actually rule their countries and represent their interests.
Yet according to sacred texts, not only does an active collaboration exist
between unregenerate social architects and fallen angels, but politicians
in particular are vulnerable to "principalities and powers."
According to well-known exorcist Gabriele Amorth who has performed over
70,000 official exorcisms, "Evil exists in politics, quite often
in fact. The devil loves to take over… those who hold political
office." [4]As a result, it is
not difficult to see how "fleshy gloves" such as US Presidents
may be unaware of their role as chess pieces on a terrestrial game board
sliding in and out of position as they are moved by "the god of this
world" toward the phantasmogoric end game (see 2 Cor. 4:4). If researchers
like Dr. Monteith are correct and world governments are to this day influenced
by such dark angelic powers, the elite who head the current push to establish
a New World Order are directly connected with an antichrist system whether
they know it or not. With vivid testimony to this, Satan offered to Jesus
all the power and glory of the kingdoms of this world. He said, "All
this power [control] will I give thee, and the glory of them [earthly
cities]: for that is delivered unto me: and to whomsoever I will I give
it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine" (Luke
4:6-7).

Signs
and evidence of such supernatural involvement in the current move towards
worldwide totalitarian government have been increasing in political commentary,
occult symbolism and numerological ‘coincidences’ over the
past decade. As public opinion is engineered toward final acceptance of
the international subordination, we would expect to see these ‘mirrors
of occult involvement’ continue. Recently there have been so many
semiotic messages (visible signs and audible references that communicate
subliminal ideas) in the open that it is starting to feel as if the ‘gods’
are mocking us; challenging whether or not we will willingly admit their
involvement. This has been exponentially true since the election of US
President Barack Hussein Obama, the ‘President of the world’
according to news services around the planet. While the grandiose title
"President of the world" granted Obama by euphoric crowds on
election night remains to be prophetic, the glorified ideal behind it
reflects the global hunger for, and movement toward, the arrival of ‘the
one’ who represents the invisible agencies mentioned above and who,
for a while, will appear to be the world’s answer man.

Consider
the unprecedented messianic rhetoric that reporters, politicians, celebrities
and even preachers used in celebrating the ‘spiritual nature’
of Obama’s meteoric rise from near obscurity to US President. San
Francisco Chronicle columnist Mark Morford characterized it as "a
sort of powerful luminosity." In Morford’s opinion, this was
because Obama is "a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being
who has the ability to… help usher in a new way of being on the
planet…" [5]The dean of the Martin
Luther King Jr. International Chapel, Lawrence Carter, went further, comparing
Obama to the coming of Jesus Christ: "It is powerful and significant
on a spiritual level that there is the emergence of Barack Obama…
No one saw him coming, and Christians believe God comes at us from strange
angles and places we don’t expect, like Jesus being born in a manger."
[6]Dinesh
Sharma, a marketing science consultant with a PhD in Psychology from Harvard
appraised Obama likewise: "Many… see in Obama a messiah-like
figure, a great soul, and some affectionately call him Mahatma Obama."
[7]It
would have been easy to dismiss such commentary as the New Age quiverings
of loons had it not been for similar passion on the lips of so many people.
The following is a brief list of like expressions from a variety of news
sources:

"Barack’s
appeal is actually messianic… he… communicates God-like
energy… What if God decided to incarnate as men preaching ‘hope
and change.’ And what if we… let them slip away, not availing
ourselves… to be led by God!" Steve Davis, Journal Gazette
[8]

"This
is bigger than Kennedy. . . . This is the New Testament! I felt this
thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often. No,
seriously. It’s a dramatic event." Chris Matthews, MSNBC
[9]

"Does
it not feel as if some special hand is guiding Obama on his journey,
I mean, as he has said, the utter improbability of it all?"
Daily Kos [10]

"Obama,
to me, must be not just an ordinary human being but indeed an Advanced
Soul, come to lead America out of this mess" Lynn Sweet, Chicago
Sun Times [11]

"He
is not operating on the same plane as ordinary politicians…the
agent of transformation in an age of revolution, as a figure uniquely
qualified to open the door to the 21st century." Former US
Senator Gary Hart, Huffington Post [12]

"He
is not the Word made flesh [Jesus], but the triumph of word over flesh
[better than Jesus?]…Obama is, at his best, able to call us back
to our highest selves." Ezra Klein, Prospect [13]

"Obama
has the capacity to summon heroic forces from the spiritual depths of
ordinary citizens and to unleash therefrom a symphonic chorus of unique
creative acts whose common purpose is to tame the soul and alleviate
the great challenges facing mankind." Gerald Campbell, First
Things First [14]

"Obama
was… blessed and highly favored…I think that… his
election… was divinely ordered… I’m a preacher and
a pastor; I know that that was God’s plan… I think he is
being used for some purpose." Janny Scott, New York Times
[15]

"He
won’t just heal our city-states and souls. He won’t just
bring the Heavenly Kingdom — dreamt of in both Platonism and Christianity
— to earth. He will heal the earth itself." Micah Tillman,
The Free Liberal [16]

"The
event itself is so extraordinary that another chapter could be added
to the Bible to chronicle its significance." Rep. Jesse Jackson
Jr., Politico [17]

Though
he tried to keep it subtle himself, Obama encouraged such public perception
of him as an ‘anointed’ one whose time had come. Officially
produced Obama campaign advertising consistently used such words as ‘faith,’
‘hope,’ and ‘change.’ Republican nominee John
McCain picked up on this during his run for office and put out a cynical
video called "The
One." Using some of Obama’s own words against him, the
video mocked Obama’s play as a Christ-like figure, showing him in
New Hampshire saying, "a light beam will shine through, will light
you up, and you will experience an epiphany, and you will suddenly realize
that you must go to the polls and vote for Barack!" The video failed
to mention that having an "epiphany" actually means the sudden
realization or comprehension of an appearance of deity to man. Another
part of the video included Obama during his nomination victory speech
in St. Paul, Minnesota, saying, "this was the moment when the rise
of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." Anybody
that followed the presidential campaign would have picked up the same
nuances—angelic children organized to sing about Obama, logos depicting
rays of sunlight beaming out from his ‘O’ shaped hand sign
(a gesticulation Hitler used as well), books such as Nikki Grimes "Barack
Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope" (Simon & Schuster), comparisons
to Plato’s ‘Philosopher King’ without whom our souls
will remain broken, comparisons to the ‘spiritually enlightened’
Mahatma Gandhi, comparisons to the Solar Hero Perseus, comparisons to
Jesus Christ and even comparisons to God Himself.

The
world is "looking for a superstar," wrote Prophecy in the News
founder J. R. Church. They want a man "who can solve the problems
of our planet. That elusive dream of a world without war, poverty, and
disease has always been just beyond our reach. Most politicians are perplexed—overwhelmed
by the magnitude of the problem. They are convinced that the dilemma cannot
be solved by commerce or systems, be it democracy or socialism. Most believe
they can only be solved by a man—a superhuman superstar!"[18]

Will
Obama become the superhuman superstar the world has been waiting for?
If symbolic gestures are any indication, there certainly were plenty of
religious folks during his march into the White House that thought he
was or that at least he was a forerunner
of ‘The One.’ Dozens of churches and faith groups including
mainline Protestants organized activities to mark Obama’s inauguration
as a ‘spiritual’ event. Randall Balmer, professor of religion
in American history at Columbia University admitted he had never seen
anything like it before. [19] CNN went so far as
to compare Obama’s inauguration to the Hajj—the journey by
Muslims to the holy city of Mecca, an obligatory pilgrimage that demonstrates
their dedication to Allah.[20] In Des Moines, Iowa,
an inaugural parade for Obama included a simulation of the triumphant
entry of Christ in which a facsimile of Obama rode upon a donkey. As the
reproduction made it’s way down the streets, palm branches were
handed out to onlookers so that they could wave them like Christ’s
adorers did in the 21st chapter of Matthew.[21]

Several
ministries including the Christian Defense Coalition and Faith
and Action came together to perform what was heralded as a first
for US presidential inaugurations—applying anointing oil to the
doorposts of the arched doorway that Obama passed through as he moved
to the platform on the West Front of the Capital to be sworn in. Congressman
Paul Broun (Georgia) was part of the ritual and joined Reverend Rob Schenck,
who said, "Anointing with oil is a rich tradition in the Bible and…
symbolizes consecration, or setting something apart for God’s use."[22]
Not content with just using sacred anointing oil to consecrate Obama for
God’s use, approximately two-thousand New Agers, Wiccans and Shaman’s
gathered at Dupont Circle—chosen because it is considered the ‘gay
center of Washington DC’as well as being the point of the left ear
of the Masonic street Pentagram north of the White House—to participate
in a cleansing ceremony to purge the White House of evil spirits (which
they said were brought there by Bush) for Obama. A Shaman officiated the
event, lighting bundles of sage, which smoldered and gave off thick blue
aromatic smoke.

Saging,
as it is called, is believed by Wiccan tradition to drive away evil spirits.
[23] Even the conventional inaugural prayers, which
have been historically offered during US presidential installation ceremonies,
carried an unparalleled New Age flavor this time around. Rick Warren,
considered America’s Christian pastor, rendered a blessing in the
name of the Muslim version of Jesus (Isa), while the Bishop of New Hampshire,
Gene Robinson invoked the "God of our many understandings."

While
all this was highly unusual, even unprecedented, it was not surprising.
Obama had spent significant time during the campaign distancing himself
from conservative Christians, evangelicals and especially the Religious
Right (which had held prominent sway over Republicans since Ronald Reagan
held office) countering that his faith was more universalist and unconvinced
of Bible inerrancy. In a 5-minute video available on YouTube,
a pre-election speech by Obama was highly cynical of Bible authority and
even derided specific Old and New Testament scriptures. "Whatever
we once were," Obama says on the video, "we’re no longer
a Christian nation," adding, "Democracy demands that the religiously
motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific
values… this is going to be difficult for some who believe in the
inerrancy of the Bible as many evangelicals do."[24]

Consequently,
the conscious effort by Obama to reorient America away from conventional
Christianity was widely embraced by people who identified with the man
who carried a tiny idol of the Hindu god Hanuman in his pocket—whose
blessings he sought in the race to the White House—together with
a Madonna and child. For Obama, who grew up in a household where the Bible,
the Koran and the Bhagvat Gita sat on a shelf side by side, organized
religion was best defined as "closed-mindedness dressed in the garb
of piety," but a useful political tool nonetheless. And so he used
it masterfully, and earned a cult following while doing so.

By February
2009, Obama had replaced Jesus Christ as America’s No. 1 hero according
to a Harris poll, and dedication to his come-one come-all mysticism has
continued to spread, with evangelists of the new religion calling for
the ‘tired’ faith of our fathers to be replaced with a global
new one. Terry Neal, writing for the Hamilton Spectator is such a disciple,
and proclaims boldly: "The faiths of our fathers are tired now…
only a global world view will suffice. The marriage of a believable faith
with the husbandry of government is the union that must be contracted."
This has to occur under Obama, Neal concludes, for only then will there
be "peace on earth and goodwill toward all."[25]

Although
it is more difficult to understand the broad appeal of Obama’s New
Age philosophy to the many evangelical and Catholic voters who supported
him, the phenomenon can be explained to some degree as the result of a
changing culture. Over the past 50 years and especially as baby-boomers
listened attentively to pastors telling them to focus on human potential
and the "god within us all," eastern philosophies of Monism,
Pantheism, Hinduism, and Self Realization grew, providing Americans with
an alluring opportunity to throw off the "outdated ideas" of
fundamental Christianity and to espouse a more "enlightened"
monistic worldview (all is one). Aimed at accomplishing what the builders
of the Tower of Babel failed to do (unify the masses of the world under
a single religious umbrella), God was viewed as pantheistic and humans
were finally understood to be divine members of the whole "that God
is." Pagans argue this principle of inner divinity is older than
Christianity, which is true. The gospel according to such New Age concepts—a
gospel of "becoming god"— is as old as the fall of man.
It began when the serpent said to the woman "ye shall be as gods"
(Gen. 3:5), and it will zenith during the reign of the anti-Christian
god-king.
